SCHiM is gorgeous to look at with a very unique artstyle supported by a very chill soundtrack. Sure, the gameplay loop gets old as it doesn't really evolve past the initial concept, but it's still quite fun to play in short bursts.
While the story left some threads loose and the relentless pursuing grew tiresome, Scholar's Mate conjures an unnerving atmosphere through its grim confinement. Deviating escape rooms and a gruesome antagonist make it a decent diversion for horror fans seeking a unique challenge.
From start to finish, Infinite Inside offers a memorable journey that is sure to leave a lasting impression. This is a essential title (also known as a masterpiece in my books) for Meta Quest 3 owners, offering a masterfully crafted blend of gameplay, interactivity, and presentation that sets a new standard for VR experiences.
Playing Riven on a VR headset in 2024 gives us a glimpse into a bygone era of adventure gaming that trusted players to explore freely without being led by the hand. Fans of the original game will find much to love in this new version as seeing locations that were previously only static pre-rendered images come to life in VR is breathtaking. But for newcomers or modern audiences, Riven might be a tough pill to swallow.
Exploring the atmospheric, otherworldly environments using a straightforward yet satisfying parkour system kept me thoroughly engaged and I think that's enough to give Downward Enhanced Edition a try, if you can grab it during a sale.
Arcade Paradise VR is a compelling title that successfully merges business simulation with the excitement of arcade gaming. Despite minor technical issues and a limited number of VR-adapted games, the overall package is highly enjoyable and one that I can easily recommend.
Indika's creativity and vision craft an unforgettable wonderfully weird psychological journey through faith that will stick with you for quite a while.
Despite some uneven gameplay, Empty Head Games' debut Saviorless utilizes its narrative and vivid aesthetics to craft an artistic experience worth seeing through.
The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners - Chapter 2 serves up satisfying zombie combat within New Orleans. However, it represents a missed opportunity to showcase improved visuals and AI on Quest 3 hardware. If you loved the first game, will find reward in returning for its gameplay loop, but this entry does little to advance what was established before.
I still like that this Master Collection exists, despite its flaws. It's definitely a time-capsule and if you are hungry to experience the brilliant stealth-action saga on modern consoles, you will find much to love. But you still have to remember that this is just a re-release and what was good back then in terms of controls, might feel rather alien nowadays.
Medieval Dynasty: New Settlement is a dazzling pioneer of what's possible for in-depth simulations and role-playing adventures in virtual reality. Its immersive crafting, community building, and survival mechanics feel incredibly tactile and rewarding thanks to full VR integration. This is undeniably one of the most impressive open-world experiences currently available in VR and is an absolutely essential experience I recommend to everyone.
I didn't like C-Smash VRS as much as I was hoping I would. The presentation sure is great, but that alone cannot save this experience for me as the core gameplay loop left me unsatisfied most of the time.
While I really appreciated Lucy Liu's voice performance, The Pirate Queen ultimately tells only a small piece of Cheng Shih's history without delivering compelling narrative or gameplay.
I was pretty excited when I learned the news that Lawn Mowing Simulator would get the VR treatment and that I would be able to play it on my Quest 3. However, after playing or better say trying to play it, in its current state, I cannot recommend Lawn Mowing Simulator VR to anyone and I will go as far as to say that you should completely avoid this game.
Between awe-inspiring vistas lay meticulously crafted space facilities begging exploration. Stellar interactive systems, visuals pushing portable VR limits, and an engrossing sci-fi plot has Vertical Robot raising the bar for the medium once more. For any Quest 3 owner, Red Matter 2 offers a must-play and essential showcase of what VR is capable of delivering.
Although the performance of the two main actors is bad, the setting, the story, the weird gorgeous locations you get to visit and the gameplay make it worth your time and money.
Faithful to its roots while introducing quality of life tweaks, Contra: Operation Galuga offers accessible and rewarding gameplay for series veterans and newcomers alike looking for retro shooting fun.
Paint The Town Red VR on Quest 3 brings the exhilarating and blood-soaked action of the original game to virtual reality, offering a unique and immersive brawler experience, but technical problems keep it from being one of the greats.
Penny's Big Breakaway is at its best when movement feels crisp and levels showcase Evening Star's knack for balancing complexity and flow. But frustrating challenges and technical hiccups weigh things down.
The game has been out for quite some time now and while I don't know how good or bad it was prior to these last few massive updates, I know that today, Genotype is probably one of the best single-player games you can play on Quest 3. I strongly recommend this game.
